I'll get some interior shots when camera recharges
The verdict is that it has some really clever stuff inside, the digital dash is very clear, the audio is simply stunning, the sat Nav is same as D4, Wendy likes the split view screen, so she can watch telly whilst I drive!
The deployable side steps are a pain in the shin until you get used to them. The stop-start works completely seamlessly, and if its fuel consumption average (29) is to be believed, its a good thing. The seats are very comfortable, it is much quicker than the D4, It also blows about in the wind a bit more than the D4. There is a fair bit of engine and road vibration felt through the steering wheel and pedals, which surprised me really, I expected it to be smoother.
Would I have one in preference to the D4? No, not yet.
My car should be finished tomorrow, I'm having some accessories fitted also
